It was going to be a hot one today, and it's back to Comiskey. I mean hot, like reports of a heat index around 105. We have to get to Comiskey early today, because of the giveaway - Carlton Fisk Bobblehead Dolls. Bobbleheads always draw fans to the park and sure enough today was no exception. Two hours before the game the parking lots are almost full and there are lines all around the outside of the park. We had called Janie and had her meet us outside the Stadium Club entrance - we were not going to kill ourselves sitting outside, so it was definitely a day to stay cool in the Club. The disadvantage of being there is that it's hard to keep track of the game - it's noisy, smokey and you just feel "disconnected". After the game, I looked up at the scoreboard and saw a graphic that I don't ever remember seeing - animation of a broom sweeping. Yes, the Sox had swept the series against the Royals 4-2. Nothing really special happened during the game. Sometime after the game, the Sox traded Kenny Lofton to the Giants for minor league pitchers Felix Diaz and Ryan Meaux. So, the fire sale continues...
Thank goodness I finally found someone who is into baseball as much as I am. Only difference is I'm a NL forever fan, Card's to be exact. And my blog is not a baseball centered page unless you dig deep into it. But I love baseball, all baseball and glad to see a dedicated page. ;-)Congratulations!!
Well, this really isn't a dedicated baseball page. It's just I'm a weekend season ticket holder for the White Sox, so I'm there when they're in town. Just because I'm a Sox fan doesn't mean I a fan of the DH - I'm not. Both leagues need to play by the same rules. I'll bet you were happy about the Cards winning with a walk-off homerun against the Cubs last night!
